I give it an A for looks and execution and effort, but an F for storytelling. It´s eye candy, pretending to be more than it really is. I found it unsatisfying. I want a short story to do something with my feelings, and this one just tickled my brain in regards of how they produced it and achieved that kind of screen value, with shooting on location and such.

Alright, I just read that it is more of a teaser than a real short movie, and that the guy already is a pro in the field of shooting commercials. lol:lol That explains a lot

The concept art work is great, love the style although it´s nothing really knew, an amalagam of various anime styles I´d say.

Buuuut...

I´m curious to see more from that guy

Yeah, I just thought it was kinda cool.

No re-invention of the wheel, but interested to see if it becomes a feature.

Have you all seen the other four films in this "series"? For those who don't know, there are actuall 5 short films here, and they all have the same dialogue:

"What is it?"
"It's a unicorn"
"Never seen one close up before"
"Beautiful"
"Get away"
"Get away"
"I'm sorry"

It's fascinating to see all of the different stories that revolve around the dialogue. I think my favorite is with the little blind girl...
